I don´t think so -as the keys might just be the triggers for pots 
above the keys a sort of "manual sequencer" that could be triggered 
by an external clock or by hitting the correct keys.

I urgently need also a monophonic keyboard. I hope this is included
self-evidently.

>   o aftertouch
For the corresponding output we should have several modes:

1.) "hold" - after releasing the sensor, the output 
    holds a voltage that corresponds to the level 
    of the last N milliseconds.
2.) "real" - after releasing the sensor (=no pressure 
    on the pad), the output also gives no voltage.
3.) "velocity" - when I hit the sensor the output holds the value 
    of the first N milliseconds (this gives velocity instead of 
    key pressure).
4.) "gated velocity" - when I hit the sensor the output holds the value 
    of the first N milliseconds. After releasing the sensor the output
    returns to 0 Volt (This is useful for dynamic drum electronics).

I do not understand. What should mean "analogue" sequencer? To me this is a
sequencer with knobs to set the tuning. A sequencer inside a keyboard
always
will be "digital" since it gets the tuning info from the keys.

The question is, should it record the velocity or not?

I prefer simple sequencers. To my humble opinien the perfect sequencer is 
the one in the Roland SH-101 or JX-3P.

Additionally I'd appreciate some Arpeggiopatterns

hi florian,
your suggestions about the aftertouch are very
interesting...also, about the analog sequencer,it
means that above each key will exist a potensiometer
that will output a given(by the user)value.now as the
sequencer loops from the first key position to the
last,you will be able to activate or deactivate each
step of the sequencer on the fly!!(bu touching the
corresponding key sensor).the digital sequencer would
just record the notes that you play on the
keyboard.for more accurate info just wait a couple of
days...i hope...

I did not think of that, but it is a nice Idea!
